The U.S. Commerce Department releases December retail sales, which measure spending at stores, online and in restaurants. They fell 0.6% in November from October, the biggest monthly decline in 2022, driven by a pullback in holiday-related purchases, home projects and autos.
The U.S. Federal Reserve releases December figures on industrial production, which measures the output of factories, mining and utilities. Industrial production increased 2.5% in November from a year earlier, the smallest annual rise since March 2021.
